Kelley takes this episode to explain the role of hormones in weight loss and weight maintenance and the impact hormones have on metabolic health. She explores some of the common hormonal imbalances that may be sabotaging your weight loss journey and tools you can implement with respect to each imbalance that can serve as sustainable solutions. She also discusses the mental and emotional pitfalls we fall into when trying to lose weight and how to proactively help to prevent emotional and overeating. Tune in for strategies to stop grazing and balance blood sugar, overcoming food rules and restriction and to find out what underlying hormonal imbalance may be preventing you from having the results you want!

Understanding the Mind-Body Connection for Holistic Healing of Chronic Diseases From Hormonal Issues to Cancer and Everything in Between with Dr. Christian Gonzalez

In today's episode of the Balancing Chaos Podcast, Chad and Kelley sit down with Dr. Christian Gonzalez to discuss the importance of the mind body connection in healing chronic disease. Dr. Christian Gonzalez, aka Dr. G, began his career as a naturopathic doctor in 2014, but it wasn’t until his mother passed of cancer that he decided to shift his focus to oncology. Through his work Dr. G has made it his mission for people to understand that the relationships we have with our homes, the environment, and the people in our lives all play a role in the development of chronic disease. As he studied this concept more, Dr. G has become extremely passionate about environmental medicine as well as the mind, body, spirit connection.

Throughout the episode today, Kelley, Chad and Dr. G explore the concept of separating oneself from their ego to find inner peace and balance within the physical body. Dr. G shares insights on the mind-body connection and the importance of creating space within the physical body to alleviate stress and thereby help to prevent the onset of chronic disease from hormonal imbalances to cancer. The conversation details everything from what types of symptoms and conditions arise (from cancer to cortisol imbalances and everything in between) when we're not deeply connected to our physical bodies and when we're repressing emotions, how to begin to feel tension within your body and how to process it rather than store it, how to help our children navigate their emotions rather than getting them caught in a generational trauma cycle, the TRUTH about the impact of alcohol on your physical health and what to prioritize if you want to heal a chronic condition.
